Poker Stereotypes

jaykay

What are some things that you noticed about players by the way they dress/their ethnicity/age etc.? It's a stereotype for a reason and obviously not everyone will fall into the stereotypes

Apologies in advance if this is offensive to some people

Here are some of mine:

Asian person: Very loose aggressive, usually not very good, will die for a draw , makes big bluffs that usually don't make sense and get picked off by good players

Black person: either extremely nitty or super aggressive, never in between.

Old Person: Will stack off with top pair/top kicker 100% of the time, never 3 bets for value, terrified of drawing hands, makes huge overbets on wet flops to try to take down pots right away

"I just read super system young player" : Uses poker terms in his daily vocabulary, buys in short because he has no roll, thinks everyone is a maniac because they all call to his raise of 3x big blind with aces, tries to give advice to other players on the table

Degenerate gambler: Buys in for 50 big blinds every time, almost always in an all-in pots since they are always short, usually they will go 5 or 6 buy-ins deep and every once in a while win a 3 way all-in pot, usually loses it all and everyonce in a while will go on a heater to cash out, usually goes like 10 buyins deep of 50 big blinds every time you see him.

one thing to add about the old person: 95% likelihood of having some sort of chip protector

Are you saying old ppl only 3 bet bluff? It is my understanding that if an old person 3 bets, it's always QQ+, maybe AKs. Rarely ever bluff. Pretty much ABC.

I agree with Asians (at least IMO) but I think loose aggressive would be best considered for the younger whippersnappers, where older Asians generally are pretty nitty.

This is generally speaking, with stereotypes. There are many exceptions of coarse. You my friend are clearly much cooler then any typical 'old man' and quite frankly, cooler then just most in general, thus your taken out of the 'old man' equation.

If you bring a card protector with you to a casino it means one of two things. Either you're really old or you are really weird. Which one are you?:P

jkjk card protectors are completely fine, I'm just too cool for school and find them incredibly lame.

And if you bring a card protector, you probably aren't fed.
